Not either of those, but I am playing with a bunch of Cardinal fans that might just be saving their priorities for the "big bat" St. Louis is going to get .
Nah, I know I probably won't get him.
Bigger question...what happens with the Astros line-up? Lately they have been starting Lamb and first, Berkman in right. Obviously, Huff will immediately join the line-up. Do they end up platooning Lamb and P. Wilson now, or will Lamb just go back to the bench?
Also, on Zobrist, regarding his walks-- he's drawing all these walks in front of Hunter Pence. Pitchers would be trying their damndest to keep guys off the bases with him coming up, so Zobrist and Josh Anderson must get plenty of strikes to swing at.

Which is kind of stupid since it appears that part of the reason he's got such a temper is because he's not in the big leagues.

so who's going to replace Huff in the DRay's lineup?
RotoWire.com Staff - RotoWire.com Wednesday, July 12, 2006 Update: Houston GM Tim Purpura says that the Astros' acquisition of Aubrey Huff will cut into the slumping Ensberg's playing time, the Houston Chronicle reports.
Recommendation: Purpura said that the addition of Huff brings "a professional hitter" to Houston's lineup, and Purpura noted Huff could play at first, third or in the outfield. Ensberg hasn't been right since missing some time early in June (shoulder), hitting only .158 (9-for-57) since June 15, with just three doubles and one homer.

I guess this will be his lesson to learn to control his temper then. Maybe the 50 game suspension and the not being in Tampa in June will make him want to just play ball, and not be Dukes Jr. and have the bad attitude.
